the city of santa monica filed a lawsuit. and they've announced dumping these scooters in the northeast corner of the city direct 3 and 6 in the coming months. the legal fight in santa monica promptly settled and i think santa monica is in the beginning stages of addressing the harm that caused into it's sensible regulatory extreme. there may be value added by these motorized scooters but for that to manifest we must take into account some of the potential harms and permit conditions pertaining to where these privatized scooters may be placed around the city and used among other sensible conditions. ultimately, it would be great if we could be less reactive and set up a firewall to capture the emerging technologies and subject them to safety requirements before we start hearing the horror stories. in the meantime i look forward to have your support, colleagues, as we get a handle on the latest entrant into our emerging transportation sector. the rest i will submit. >> thank you supervisor. ronin? sheehy. madame president, rer

i'm hopeful the data can at least scale back the number of vehicles on city streets. as for driverless cars, you all saw the california department of motor vehicles announced the final regulations they have developed for driverless vehicles. the dmv will give permits for testing and deployment in april. subject to permit conditions, including the requirement to coordinate with locals on law enforcement interaction plans. while this technology could lead to less cars overtime, the future impacts are uncertain. the permit process appears to be dominated by self-certification procedures, as a result and based on the past, we are concerned that local coordination and input be taken seriously and not just be a check the box exercise. we must also ensure that the dmv and california highway patrol are equip with the necessary resources to play their effective role and hold them accountable. i'm glad we're setting up meetings with first responders to get ahead of the operational issues that will inevitably arise. questions must be answered quickly, like how do you pull over a

i know that chariot is part of the ford motor company. i know the permit program was designed to complement our public transportation system. i know they worked to ensure that that process would be one that would be about complementing. and so for district like mine that have been identified as transportation deserts, as it pertains to the last mile in particular, there can be difficulty and overcrowding and buses in the system. we sat down with chariot and talked about increasing services and we'll present that shortly. we just want to commend all the parties coming together. this service in general is designed to get people out of their cars. it's not about a single-occupancy vehicle with one driver. it's encouraging people to carpool and utilize the service the last mile or get them to a final destination. so we're very supportive of this program and want to comment the -- commend the parties involved. >> supervisor tang: thank you. i would say that i'm glad that given that this service has come in response to demand by individuals who
